Daf 25b (דַּף כ״ה ע״ב)

The Judgment is the Kelim [Vessels] of Ze'ir Anpin and His Nukvah (דִּין כֵּלָיו שֶׁל זְעֵיר וְנוּקְבֵיהּ), therefore he said, “The lower word is in the upper” (לָכֵן אָמַר מִלָּה תַּתָּאָה בְּעִלָּאָה). Its explanation is: their existence and their sweetening depend upon the higher ones (פֵּרוּשׁ קִיּוּמָם וּמִתּוּקָם תָּלוּי בָּעֶלְיוֹנִים). Its explanation is: the life and existence of Ze'ir Anpin and His Nukvah depend upon Abba and Imma, in whom are the hands of Atika Yomaya [Ancient of Days] (פֵּרוּשׁ ז״א וְנוּקְבֵיהּ חַיּוּתָם וְקִיּוּמָם תָּלוּי בְּאַבָּא וְאִמָּא אֲשֶׁר יְדֵי עַתִּיק יוֹמַיָּיא), and the mystery of, “The lower inherits the upper, both together as one” (וְרָזָא דִּירְתִּי תַּתָּאָה לְעִלָּאָה תַּרְוַויְהוּ כַּחֲדָא). Its explanation is: Ze'ir Anpin and His Nukvah inherit the place of Abba and Imma together as one (פֵּרוּשׁ ז״א וְנוּקְבֵיהּ יוֹרְשִׁים מְקוֹם אַבָּא וְאִמָּא כְּאֶחָד), when they receive and are influenced they ascend and become as Mayin Nukvin [Feminine Waters] for Abba and Imma (בִּזְמַן שֶׁהֵם מְקַבְּלִים וּמוּשְׁפָּעִים הֵם עוֹלִים וְנַעֲשִׂים כְּמַיִן נוּקְבִין לְאַבָּא וְאִמָּא), and receive from the abundance of the Appiryon [Palanquin] and the House of Adam Kadmon (וּמְקַבְּלִים מִשֶּׁפַע הָאַפִּרְיוֹן וְהַבַּיִת שֶׁל אָדָם קַדְמוֹן), as it is said, “You made them all with Chokhmah [Wisdom]” (שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר כֻּלָּם בְּחָכְמָה עָשִׂיתָ) (Psalms 104:24), namely, the Bet of Bereshit (דְּהַיְינוּ ב׳ שֶׁל רֵאשִׁית), which is Chokhmah [Wisdom] (הִיא הַחָכְמָה), and Bet means two (וּבַיִת הוּא שְׁנַיִם), and within it also stands the mystery of the House of Chokhmah [Wisdom] (וְגַם עוֹמֵד בְּתוֹכוֹ סוֹד הַבַּיִת שֶׁל הַחָכְמָה), as it is said, “Through Chokhmah [Wisdom] a house is built” (שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר בְּחָכְמָה יִבָּנֶה בָּיִת) (Proverbs 24:3). Its explanation is: in the Reisha d'Ein [Head of Nothingness], which is in the Reisha of Atika [Head of Atika], is Chokhmah [Wisdom], and within it is the sweetening of this Appiryon [Palanquin], the mystery of the House (פֵּרוּשׁ בְּרֵישָׁא דְּאֵין שֶׁהוּא בְּרֵישָׁא דְּעַתִּיקָא הִיא הַחָכְמָה וּבָהּ מִתּוּק הָאַפִּרְיוֹן הַזֹּאת סוֹד הַבַּיִת), and through this the Chokhmah [Wisdom] of the Reisha d'Ein [Head of Nothingness] gives power through Arich to Abba to build the House, which is the Nukvah of Ze'ir Anpin (וּבָזֶה הַחָכְמָה שֶׁל רֵישָׁא דְּאֵין נוֹתֶנֶת כֹּחַ ע״י אֲרִיךְ לְאַבָּא לִבְנוֹת בַּיִת הִיא נוּקְבָה שֶׁל ז״א), or it may mean the House and the sweetening in Abba toward the thirty-two Paths within him (אוֹ יִרְצֶה בַּיִת וּמִתּוּק בְּאַבָּא אֶל הַל״ב נְתִיבוֹת שֶׁבּוֹ).

It is written, “King Shlomo made himself an Appiryon [Palanquin] from the trees of Lebanon” (כְּתִיב אַפִּרְיוֹן עָשָׂה לוֹ הַמֶּלֶךְ שְׁלֹמֹה מֵעֲצֵי הַלְּבָנוֹן) (Song of Songs 3:9), He is Adam Kadma'ah without qualification (הוּא אָדָם קַדְמָאָה סְתָם), “He made for Himself the Appiryon [Palanquin]” is the Malkhut of the Reisha d'La Ityada [Head of the Unknown] (עָשָׂה לוֹ הָאַפִּרְיוֹן הוּא מַלְכוּת שֶׁל רֵישָׁא דל״א), and it is the Keter which was rectified from the Keterim [Crowns] of the seven Inner Lights of the Ma'nin Tevirin [Shattered Vessels] (וְהוּא כֶּתֶר אֲשֶׁר נִתְקַּן מֵהַכְּתָרִים שֶׁל ז׳ אוֹרוֹת פְּנִימִיּוֹת דְּמָאנִין תְּבִירִין), and this is the meaning of, “from the trees of Lebanon” (וְזֶהוּ מֵעֲצֵי הַלְּבָנוֹן), and this is the Inner Light called Lebanon (וְזֶהוּ אוֹר פְּנִימִי הַנִּקְרָא לְבָנוֹן), which is more whitened (אֲשֶׁר הוּא מְלֻבָּן יוֹתֵר), it is the Nekudot [Vocalization Marks] of Keter (הוּא נְקֻדּוֹת כֶּתֶר), and previously it was in the Kli [Vessel] called Etz [Tree] (וְהָיָה קוֹדֶם בַּכְּלִי הַנִּקְרָא עֵץ), which was hard like a tree—these are the Judgments (שֶׁהָיָה קָשֶׁה כָּעֵץ אֵלּוּ הַדִּינִים), and Etz [Tree] also equals the numerical value of the Name Havayah multiplied upon itself two by two (וְעֵץ עוֹלֶה גַּם כְּמִסְפַּר שֵׁם הוי״ה הַמִּתְרַבֶּה זוֹ עַל זוֹ שְׁתַּיִם שְׁתַּיִם), which is Yafeh [Beautiful] (דְּהוּא יפ״ה), Yod multiplied by Heh, plus Heh multiplied by Yod, plus Vav multiplied by Heh, plus Heh multiplied by Vav (הפ״י ופ״ה הפ״ו), equaling the numerical value of Etz [Tree] (עוֹלֶה כְּמִנְיַן עֵץ), and this Lebanon sweetens it (וְהַלְּבָנוֹן הַזֶּה מְמַתְּקוֹ), it is the mystery of the four Names of Unification: Havayah, Adonai, Havayah, Ehyeh p1-35(הוּא סוֹד אַרְבַּע שְׁמוֹת הַיִּחוּד שֶׁהֵם יהוה אדני יהוה אהיה), which equal the numerical value of Lebanon (עוֹלִים כְּמִנְיַן לבנו״ן), and the numerical value of Chakal Tapuchin Kadishin [Field of Holy Apples] (וּכְמִנְיַן חק״ל תַּפּוּחִין קַדִּישִׁין), and these four Names are the mystery of Abba, who is Havayah, Imma, who is Ehyeh, Ze'ir Anpin, who is Havayah, and His Nukvah, who is Adonai (וְהַד׳ שֵׁמוֹת הַלָּלוּ הֵם סוֹד אַבָּא שֶׁהוּא הוי״ה וְאִמָּא הִיא אהיה וּזְעֵיר הוּא הוי״ה וְנוּקְבֵיהּ הִיא אדני), and she is called Chakal [Field] (וְהִיא נִקְרֵאת חקל), in the mystery of the verse, “Like the fragrance of a field which Hashem has blessed” (בְּסוֹד הַפָּסוּק כְּרֵיחַ הַשָּׂדֶה אֲשֶׁר בֵּרֲכוֹ יהוה) (Genesis 27:27), He is Ze'ir Anpin from His Yesod, which is called Shaddai, whose numerical value equals HaSadeh [the Field] (הוּא זְעֵיר מִן יְסוֹד שֶׁלּוֹ שֶׁנִּקְרָא שׁדי שֶׁהוּא כְּמִנְיַן הַשָּׂדֶה), and Lebanon is also the mystery of the thirty-two Paths, the thirty-two Elohim of Bereshit, and the fifty Gates of Binah [Understanding] (וְגַם לְבָנוֹן הוּא סוֹד ל״ב נְתִיבוֹת וְל״ב אֱלֹהִים דִּבְרֵאשִׁית וְנו״ן שַׁעֲרֵי בִינָה), which are sweetened through these four Names (הַנִּמְתָּקִים ע״י ד׳ שֵׁמוֹת הַלָּלוּ)
